Sisters [E] I love them so! |
Interesting format you've chosen. I expected a poem until I read your description - indicating, quite clearly, prose. So as prose I must read it. It turns out to be an accurate summation of the relationship between sisters and, if I may make the point, all siblings. In sticking to the most essential elements of the relationship, the piece retains a universality that speaks to all those who have siblings. There's no need to go into great detail here since it's the more general observations that we all can relate to. So the piece succeeds as a simple yet profound statement of the feeling uniting siblings as other groups can never be. It's a powerful piece indeed. To return to the matter of form, I wonder if the piece would be as effective if it had been in a more usual form for prose. I suspect that it might miss the target in that case. The separation of each point into a distinct, centered paragraph makes it stand out as separately as true as it is in relation to all the other lines. Very thoughtful. You have used only two of the allowed three genres under the heading. One more could be Emotional to pull in a few more readers. My review has been submitted for consideration in "Good Deeds Get CASH!" .
